Detroit Engine – Series 60<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

DDC Code # (Flashed) = 61
\nPID = S1
\nFMI = 0
\nFault Description = Injector #1 – Response Time Long<\/p>\n

#DESCRIPTION OF FLASH CODE 61<\/strong>
\nFlash Code 61 indicates that the time it takes from when the DDEC IV ECM requests an Injector be turned on to when the Injector solenoid valve actually closes is longer than the high limit of the expected range. Engine oil temperature must be greater than 87 deg F (30 deg C).
\nThis Diagnostic condition is typically:
\n\u2192Bad Injector harness and or connection (high resistance)
\n\u2192Poor vehicle grounds
\n\u2192Sticky solenoid valve.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n#NOTE:<\/strong>
\nThe Injector diagnostic SID (Subsystem Identifier) indicates which cylinder number has an Injector with a long response time. The Injector number describes the cylinder and or bank which has the Injector with a long response time. The Detroit Diesel DiagnosticLink 8.15<\/a> will display the Injector text description. Read More: Injector Response Times on Detroit Diesel Diagnostic Link (DDDL) Softwar<\/a>e.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nInjector response times generally increase with low battery supply voltage and decrease with high battery supply voltage. Although Injector response times vary from Injector to Injector at a given r\/min, each individual Injector response time should remain relatively consistent from one firing to the next. Wide variations in response time (typically \u00b1 0.2 msec) for one Injector at a steady Engine r\/min may indicate an electrical problem (faulty Alternator or voltage regulator, poor or broken ground cables, etc).<\/p>\n

#TROUBLESHOOTING FLASH CODE 61<\/strong>
\nThe following procedure will troubleshoot Flash Code 61.
\n1). Test Alternator Ground
\nPerform the following steps to test alternator ground.
\n1. Disable the Alternator by removing the Alternator belt.
\n2. Start and run the Engine, warm to greater than 87 deg F (30 deg C).
\n3. Does the code return?
\n\u2192If flash code 61 does not return, repair or replace the alternator grounds and refer to “Verify Repairs”.
\n\u2192If the code(s) return, refer to “Determine Cylinders with Fault”.<\/p>\n

2). Determine Cylinders with Fault
\nThe Injector location that is logging the codes is listed as below.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n1. Disconnect the 5-pin Injector harness connector at the ECM for those Injectors logging the codes.
\n2. Establish a good ECM case ground by measuring the resistance across two points on the ECM. The resistance should measure less than or equal to 1.
\n3. Once a good case ground is established, keep one of the measurement probes in place and move the other probe to one of the five exposed male Injector terminals on the ECM.
\n4. Measure the resistance. Repeat this procedure at each of the five terminals.
\n\u2192If any terminals have a resistance of less than 1,000, replace the ECM. Refer to “Verify Repairs”.
\n\u2192If all terminals have a resistance of greater than 1,000, refer to “Check for Short”.<\/p>\n

3). Check for Short
\nPerform the following steps to check for a short.
\n1. Locate the Injector harness connector terminals associated with the codes.
\n2. Measure resistance between that cavity and the cylinder block.
\n\u2192If measured resistance is less than 10, the wire is shorted to the Engine. Repair or replace the harness and refer to “Verify Repairs”.
\n\u2192If measured resistance is greater than 10, go to step 3.
\n3. Remove the valve cover to gain access to the cylinder associated with the code.
\n4. Remove the connector terminals at the Injector Solenoid(s).
\n5. Measure resistance between that cavity and the appropriate return cavity (G or E).
\n\u2192If measured resistance is less than 5, the wire is shorted to the return wire. Repair or replace the harness and refer to “Verify Repairs”.
\n\u2192If measured resistance is greater than 5, refer to section “Check for Open”.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4). Check for Open
\nPerform the following steps to check for an open.
\n1. Insert a jumper wire between the cavity associated with the code and the return for that connector (G or E).
\n2. Measure resistance across the Injector connectors (disconnected from Injector Solenoid).
\n\u2192If the measured resistance is greater than 5, the Injector wire is open. Repair or replace the harness and refer to “Verify Repairs”.
\n\u2192If the measured resistance is less than 5, and the ECM software is less than 3.00, reprogram the ECM. Refer to “Verify Repairs”.<\/p>\n

5). Verify Repairs
\nPerform the following steps to verify repairs:
\n1. Start and run the Engine. Warm to 87 deg F (30 deg C).
\n2. Check DDDL for codes. Read More: How to Connecting DETROIT Engine using Detroit Diesel Diagnostic Link (DDDL)<\/a>.
\n\u2192If Injector codes are logged, please review this section from the first step to find the problem. Refer to “Determine Cylinders with Fault”.
\n\u2192If no codes are logged, no further troubleshooting is required.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
